Battery Recycling

Interstate’s expansive distribution network proves to be a huge advantage for collecting lead, as well as selling new batteries. We have lead the way in recycling even before environmental programs became popular. Although we sell more than 17 million batteries each year, our recycle rate equals approximately 25 million spent batteries a year. Today, we're the No. 1 battery recycler of lead-acid batteries in the U.S., achieving one of the highest recycling percentages of most industries, including tires, aluminum, paper and plastic.# 1 in Battery Recycling in the U.S.

After a battery's useful life, its contents can become an environmental hazard. Interstate's comprehensive recycling system ensures compliance with all environmental and transportation laws. Our Green Standard-certified personnel handle batteries start to finish, and special packaging ensures stable and safe transport for every core. At Interstate Batteries, we make it easy being green.
